In this paper we describe our massively parallel version of Enzo, a multiphysics, parallel, AMR application for simulating cosmological structure formation developed at UCSD and Columbia. We describe its physics, numerical algorithms, implementation, and performance on current terascale platforms. We also discuss our future plans and some of the challenges we face as we move to the petascale.
